I have a particular interest in the Imperial Japanese army, as I live in Japan at the moment, and I want my children to have a more balanced view of what the IJA did in Asia. What with the current government trying to downplay what the army did in Asia, I think my family needs to see a different perspective.
The sad fact is the inclusion of women being trained to use bamboo spears and school boys armed only with Molotov Cocktails to take on Allied forces in the potential invasion of Japan which could have occurred from 1945-46.
